Ifor Williams CT177 Car Transporter

The Ifor Williams CT177 is a premium, maximum-capacity car transporter engineered specifically for the motor trade, vehicle recovery specialist, and plant hire professional. Exceptionally versatile, the CT177 is wide enough to accommodate most light commercial vehicles and van chassis, yet perfectly proportioned for smaller passenger cars.

The standout feature of this model is its hydraulic tilt-bed action, which combines with integrated, pull-out mini-skids to achieve an ultra-low loading angle. This ensures quick, seamless, and efficient loading of vehicles whether they are driven under their own power or recovered using a winch. Built with a phenomenal strength-to-weight ratio, the engineering design minimises unladen weight to yield a massive 2695kg payload. For practical driver access, the low-profile wheel arch tops sit just 10cm (4") from the deck, providing ample door clearance for the loaded vehicle, and feature high-grip textured treads for safe operator entry and exit. Low-energy, high-visibility LED road lights are fitted as standard.

Advanced Loading & Recovery Features

• Retained Mini-Skids: The low-profile loading skids give improved ground clearance and slide quickly into position. Fully retained within the rear deck chassis at all times, they cannot be lost or stolen, simply sliding back into place beneath the floor once loaded.

• Adjustable Winch Arm: The heavy-duty removable winch arm is fully adjustable from side to side, allowing for perfect cable alignment with off-centre vehicle recovery eyes.

• On-Board Storage: A heavy-duty storage toolbox is integrated directly into the trailer bed infrastructure to keep straps and recovery gear secure.
